I never met or spoke with this customer. This customer purchased a product that failed and many claimants attorneys recruited customers who made those purchases to sue. I am only being named, along with some others, because my former broker dealer went out of business and this customer must have found my name formerly associated with that firm. This is not a legitimate claim against me.”
